THE GERMAN REPLY TO CRITICISM, The German Admiralty repudiate the alleged effect of this secrecy, and one is bound to admit that many in other navies do not object so much to the secrecy of Berlin as to the fact that the increase of displacement of German battleships and large cruisers forces others to build farger ships, la reply to lbit argument, the Germans submit that they did not introduce the large type, but are com peled to follow suit. For the present, therefore, the different competitors reason is a circle, and apparently there will be no balt made until the cost of the ships causes some.
